How To Perform The Seated Press (Shoulder Press)

January 6, 2010 by Gain Muscle Mass · Leave a Comment 

If you’re looking for a good “old school” shoulder exercise to add some mass to your upper body, then the seated press also known as shoulder press is hard to beat. Not only does it allow you to utilize multiple muscle groups throughout your body as well as many stabilizer muscles, but it allows you to train your shoulders with a very heavy weight.

While this type of basic shoulder training can be hard on your body, if you learn how to do it right, you’ll gain strength and muscle mass in your shoulders and traps.  In my opinion there is no better all around mass building shoulder exercise than seated press.

Trust me when I say that there aren’t to many better feelings in the world than pounding out a hard and heavy set of shoulder press. Your traps are on fire and your shoulders are burning, but it just feels great to be able to push a lot of weight up over your head!

If you’re ready to include seated press into your upper body workout routine, then you need to make sure you know how to perform this exercise with correct form.  While it’s definitely one of the more effective shoulder building exercises, it’s easy to injure yourself if you don’t perform this exercise correctly.

Check out the seated press (shoulder press) page in Gain-Muscle-Workout-Less.com’s muscle building exercise section and watch the exercise demonstration videos and read through the written exercise descriptions and start performing the seated press with confidence!
